Dynamics of older men-younger women affairs

While everyone seems to be enthralled by the emergence of the cougar, the fact still remains that even though an older man-younger woman relationship is more acceptable, its still a cause for concern amongst couples and their families too.

A lot of speculations abound around such sugar daddy relationships with insinuations of hes in it for the sex and shes in it for the money and as a friend of mine once remarked, how many younger women do you see with penniless old men? However, when I look no further than my own father , whos in a relationship with someone 30 years younger to him, I disagree vehemently with the assumptions. Firstly, because most women I know complain that their men are not mature enough and it is a known fact that women mature faster than men. When I look at older men, I see maturity and a potential father figure which may be of emotional benefit for those that have been products of a broken home or have lost a father at a young age, or simply love being cocooned and protected. Older men also tend to be more indulgent and generous given that at this stage, they have a steady job and finances in place and lastly, a couples greatest concern, that he perhaps lacks the energy and stamina of a younger lover can certainly be compensated through skill and expertise. As for why the older man dates a younger woman? Well, certain reasons like younger women seem happier, less jaded, less set in their ways and have not accumulated oodles of stress scars seem logical and a basis for great relationships. But I must end this on a funny note: I Googled some reactions and I feel smart around her because Im always teaching her things, or because I know it wont work out, and my eventual goal is to be alone made me roll over laughing. Its clearly not age, but individuals that make or break relationships.
